Jim Bogart- The Front Bottoms

(via asthefirstswallowssang)

I don’t think it’s a great idea for school-aged children (even high schoolers!) to read—it promotes very horrible things, if interpreted in certain ways. Maybe not “correct” (intended) ways, but it is a book and books are art and art is not subject to only one interpretation!

I hate Catcher in the Rye so much.

I’m an English major and I’m allowed to have opinions. Those are my reasons.

I actually just looked this up and found out some interesting things.

Young MacGuffin speaks in a North East Doric dialect which obviously is hard to understand. Originally he was going to just speak gibberish but his voice actor, Kevin McKidd, suggested he try a few lines in Doric and Pixar loved it and kept it. Found a couple translations too, but only one of them applies to this gif set and that’s the third one after Merida gave her speech about letting them choose who they marry:

“It’s just not fair making us fight for the hand of a girl who doesn’t want anything to do with it. You know?”

Performers who do their research make me incredibly happy and my respect for them increases.

aww, he’s concerned about Merida not wanting to go through with it

I SHIP IT SO HAAARD

she can be the fiery warrior queen and he’ll be the gentle giant king who takes care of the children and runs the castle

and Merida will translate

In a scene that was later cut, Merida showed interest in him but was disappointed that she couldn’t understand him. I totally few-years-later ship them.

Oh no now I ship them too.

honorized:

• there is an unlisted size: short (8 oz). This is most cafes’ “small,” but Starbucks shifted the sizes up a number of years ago (which is why “tall” and “grande” weren’t weird names then), making the venti the largest. You can get any hot drink short.

• we have a number of flavor syrups that aren’t listed on the menu, just ask what we have. Also, despite what many customers think, we have peppermint year round, so we can make peppermint mochas and peppermint white mochas any time of the year. Gingerbread and pumpkin spice are seasonal, but we may not run out of stock for quite a while, so if it’s February there’s still a chance.

• bring your own cup, save 10 cents. Might have to remind the cashier, we forget sometimes.

• you can get a drink “for here” and get it in ceramic/glass, feel fancy, waste less.

• edited to add: 50 cent refills on coffee, iced tea, or iced coffee (not espresso beverages)

• iced large drinks have extra everything, on account of being 24 and not 20 ounces - extra espresso shot, extra pump of syrup.

• it’s honestly not that annoying that you have a very specific drink order. It breaks up the monotony, and it’s nice not to be a vanilla latte robot. Sometimes people would ask for weird things that I’d make for myself later and end up liking! (protip: green tea latte with peppermint)

• You can get the matcha green tea as plain, non-milk tea. It’s pretty cheap for matcha tea, too.

• adding a syrup to a drink always costs extra (unless the cashier likes you/doesn’t care, which is frequent), unless it’s already in that drink. i.e., a caramel frappuccino with extra caramel doesn’t cost extra.

• that delicious caramel sauce is in fact real caramel. That plastic-tasting caramel syrup is not. Many people don’t realize we have both - the caramel sauce is what decorates the cup of the caramel frappuccino and on the whipped cream, the caramel syrup is what flavors the actual frappuccino or a caramel latte.

• a caramel macchiato is a vanilla latte with caramel sauce, and least (Starbucks: “most”) importantly, the espresso shot put on top of the steamed milk.

• infrequently ordered, but delicious drink: a marble macchiato. It’s like a caramel macchiato but with half mocha syrup, half white mocha.

• if you want a legit cappuccino and you see jugs of milk on the counter, ask for them to use milk from the fridge. Milk needs to be cold to foam that well. Likewise, if you want a soy cappuccino, you can be a pain in the ass and ask for soymilk from the fridge (they might not even have any in there), since soy will barely foam at room temperature, since the cartons are shelf-stable.

• if you have no idea what to order, ask us. Since we get free drinks you can count on us trying every single drink in every disgusting combination. Our favorite drink will probably be something excessively complicated we’ll be happy to make for you.

• on that note, if you’re like, green tea latte? disgusting or delicious? you can ask us to sample it. we’ll make a whole drink and split it into sample cups. No big deal, our manager will probably like us better for promoting drinks anyways, and you don’t have to spend money to find out raspberry mochas are gross and green tea is delicious.

• same thing for pastries. We’ll sample it if you ask and we have enough (generally yes).

• if you really like a certain coffee we have but we don’t have it brewing, you can ask for a french press version. French press generally tastes better anyway, and iirc it doesn’t actually cost any more and you can order whatever size you normally would. We’ll probably sample the rest of the pot anyway. However, this will take significantly longer since, for once, we actually have to brew the coffee ourselves.

• we often forget or get too busy, but we actually have giftwrap, especially around the holidays. Ask and we’ll make that overpriced mug purty.

• I had a few customers with impossible or silly requests. (1) impossibly hot beverages - in excess of 210F. guys. srsly. (2) people who ask for extra hot cappuccinos and are disappointed by them still not being hot enough. This is how a cappuccino is - there’s too much air/surface area for the foam layer to ever be hot. If you want hot, get a latte. (3) asking for less-hot milk from the pitchers we’ve already made. We can’t serve milk that has gone below 135, you have to have us make a fresh batch. Sucks for waste, better for you not puking.

• in terms of dairy allergy/vegan stuff, the caramel sauce, white chocolate syrup, and pumpkin spice syrup all contain dairy. The chai contains honey. The whipped cream is 100% legit heavy cream. The caramel syrup, mocha syrup, and other syrups are non-dairy. This stuff might not matter to the lactose intolerant, but to some it does. For the caffeine-sensitive, the mocha syrup does not actually have any coffee - it’s chocolate sauce, and is just named that because it’s what we use for mochas. The “creme-based” list of fraps is usually pretty short, but there are usually more caffeine-free options, just ask.

Starbucks barista here, these are all accurate
Adding a couple:

• We can decaf anything with espresso [AND Frapps, since these don’t technically have espresso]; i.e. mochas, lattes, cappuccinos, etc
• Generally, we stop brewing everything but Pike [our medium roast] after 12pm, so that means no Bold/Dark, no Blonde, and NO DECAF. So please don’t be upset with us. It’s a matter of not wasting coffee/saving money - not enough people get brewed coffee after the morning rush for us to keep all of them available.
• At my Starbucks, we have a machine that works similarly to a french press, only it’s THE BEST THING EVER and makes amazing coffee - it’s called the Clover machine, and you can get any roast brewed on that for an individual cup, at any time of day. Only 2% of Starbucks have these! Keep in mind that that is an option, though, if the Starbucks you’re at has one

I’m planning to launch this properly when I get home in about a week, so for now there’s just a sample post (because I wanted to see how it looked).

The plan is to do at least 3 posts a week: a real recipe, a picture, and a “quick fix” recipe. I’d also like to do some videos, but we’ll see about that. It’ll start with the recipes my family has been missing while I’m away—my famous Polish garlic bread, fried pickles, etc—then move on to things I’ve been wanting to try—cupcakes, Italian pasta nachos, etc. I’d also like to do a few Iron Chef/Chopped style challenges, where someone gives me an ingredient or two and I just run with it.

If you like food, I’m sure you’ll like this! If you don’t like food, then I feel really really sorry for you, and I don’t understand at all.

This is exactly what I would have made for a certain show last week… If I had been home. This and blood (read: jam) filled cupcakes. They would have been perfect.

“Hard Times”- Twin Forks

Not even sure what to say about this one. It is a complete masterpiece. The perfect blend of experimental vocal perfection, instrumental composition and haunting lyrics. Too many goosebumps to count.

I applaud you, Mr. Carrabba.

I’m so excited about Twin Forks being a thin and Chris Carrabba and just ahh!

I just want to make everything from this blog I just found… Actually, I just want to make everything. I want to go home and cook forever. I want all the people I miss to come over and tell me about their lives and let me feed them. I want a food blog. I might make that a thing this summer. We’ll see.
